Booklet 8: Historic Trinity's Floor Tiles
81 pages
The floors of the nave under the pews are covered with acoustical cork to soften the sound in the church. The aisles of the nave, the floor of the narthex, sacristies, chapels and chancel are covered with slate flooring, that contains over 125 ceramic designed tiles throughout. Most of the tiles were designed and fabricated by the Pewabic Pottery of Detroit on East Jefferson. All of these tiles emphasize the following: all of God's creation as created by Him and used by man in humankind's service, are used in worship of the one true God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. All creation worships God.
This book on Historic Trinity Floor Tiles was photographed and compiled by Werner Stuecher. The book shows each tile and gives an interpretation of its symbolic meaning.
